We have synthesized existing knowledge from the peer-reviewed literature and administrative studies and acquired local knowledge through a series of discussions with fuels treatment practitioners. We describe specific treatments, the circumstances under which they can be applied, and treatment effects. We provide recommendations related to where, how, and how often fuels treatments may be prescribed to achieve desired outcomes. Desired outcomes address social, political, economic, and ecological factors. 606 $aFuel reduction (Wildfire prevention)$zWest (U.S.) 606 $aForests and forestry$xFire management$zWest (U.S.) 606 $aPonderosa pine$zWest (U.S.) 606 $aFire ecology$zWest (U.S.) 615 0$aFuel reduction (Wildfire prevention) 615 0$aForests and forestry$xFire management 615 0$aPonderosa pine 615 0$aFire ecology 701 $aHunter$b Molly E$01410887 712 02$aRocky Mountain Research Station (Fort Collins, Colo.) 801 0$bORE 801 1$bORE 801 2$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910696856903321 996 $aA comprehensive guide to fuels treatment practices for ponderosa pine in the Black Hills, Colorado Front Range, and Southwest$93535749 997 $aUNINA
